LOOKING FOR HOMES
That the people beyond the

interested in the Deschutes
countr.y, is evident by great
.number of inquiries that ate
received from all over the East
ern States by' the commercial
clubs of the county and other

roads are now building into the

on the part of Eastern people. Yet grand

RIGHTFUL CONSERVATIQN
When this country enters
thoroughly into the conserva
tion business, it will not stop at
keeping settlers out of the pub
lic domain, nor at preserving
vast regions, now wilderness,
against present use, as they say,
for p isteriiy. The country
will look to more fruitful meth
ods 01 conserving energies even
than those. It will try to save
the So per cent waste of fuel
that now consumes the coal and
firewood store of the nation
with startling rapidity. It will
seek to avail itself of the vast
unused energy of tides and
waves and winds. The heat of
the sun, which is the source of
most terrestrial vigor, may be
made available for man's work
through sun engines. The sub
terranean fires that belch forth
terrific power in volcanoes may
be haruvssed for similar purposes.
If men are using up the latent
energies of coal and timber at
lapid rate in these piogressive
times, there are other sources of
heat and power, some of them
-veil more abundant. Tuis does
not mean that men should con
. 1
aiime or waste ttie resources
(hey are now drawing upon to
perform their diudgery and give
diem comfort, but it djes mean
that alai mists who try to scare
the nation's lawmakers into
enacting laws that will greatly
curtail Western settlement and
growth, are looking only a shoit
distance ahead.
More woudeiful feats have
been achieved by human ingen
uity than that of saving fuel
chat wastes in smoke and heat
radiation. Greater triumphs
have been accomplished by the
human intellect than invention
of methods for utiliz.ng energies
)t tides, winds and sunshine..
